Partners for the Tutor/Mentor Conferences
The conference is part of a
Collaboration Strategy, where each
partner does as much as he/she can to help tutor/mentor programs grow
in many places. This
animation shows the T/MC event strategy, and illustrates how individuals
from many places can take leadership roles.
Interns from IIT, Loyola,
Northwestern, Michigan, and other universities are doing this work, which
illustrates a creative way for others to use their talent to mobilize resources
for tutor/mentor programs in Chicago and other cities.
The Tutor/Mentor Connection (T/MC) depends on the volunteer actions of many individuals and organization to organize the May and November Conferences each year. All of our speakers are volunteers who donate their time. Many come from other cities and pay for their own travel and lodging expenses. Without this help, we could not keep the fees for the conference so low or offer as many scholarships as we do. In this way, all of our speakers are partners in this effort. We thank you all.
Want to help plan the November 4, 2011 Conference?:
We seek volunteers and partners who view the T/MC conference as part of their own
commitment to make more effective volunteer-based tutoring and/or mentoring
programs available to economically disadvantaged kids living in neighborhoods
with high violence, high poverty, and many poorly performing schools. Partners
can come from businesses, universities, local tutor/mentor programs, schools,
foundations, and any sector of society. They can even come from beyond Chicago.
They even come from other countries.
